Local developer plans 46-unit apartment project near Goose the Market

A local developer plans to spend more than $12 million to build a trio of walk-up style apartment buildings along Delaware Street, just south of Fall Creek.

Plans call for the 46-unit Oxford Row project by Chatham Park Development to occupy about 1 acre across six parcels on Delaware—five parcels on the north side of 25th Street and another immediately south—with each three-story building having a different facade design.

The project at 2460 to 2524 N. Delaware St. would be made up of three buildings: The southernmost would have a predominantly washed gold masonry aesthetic, with stairs at its eastern entrance. Directly north and connected to that structure would be a red masonry-clad apartment and retail building with green awnings. Those two buildings would total about 18,000 square feet, with 14 units and a 2,570-square-foot retail space.

The third building, on the north side of 25th Street, would be a 27,500-square-foot black and orange masonry structure with a retail space on its southeast corner of 2,500 square feet. The 32 apartments would be accessible from multiple walk-up entrances, with many units featuring prominent bay windows to the east.

“We were very intentional in the design, as we wanted it to please and delight people when they look at it,” said Nathaniel Vezolles, vice president of development for Chatham Park Development. He said Fall Creek Place neighborhood residents and leaders have generally approved of the design.
